1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a disease that seriously threatens human life and health. The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of ulinastatin combined with mechanical ventilation on oxygen metabolism, inflammation and stress response, as well as the antioxidant capacity of ARDS. Eighty patients with ARDS treated in Yiwu Central Hospital from January, 2015 to December, 2016 were enrolled in the present study and divided into the observation (n=40) and control (n=40) groups, using a random number table. The control group was treated with mechanical ventilation, while the observation group, based on treatment of the control group, was treated with ulinastatin for 14 consecutive days as one course of treatment. The changes in the relevant indexes of oxygen metabolism, lung function, time of ventilator treatment, total hospital stay, and St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) score of the two groups after intervention were compared, and the changes in inflammatory cytokine levels, dopamine receptor-related hormone levels, superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA) and total antioxidant capacity of the two groups before intervention and at 1 and 4 weeks after intervention were compared. After intervention, the arterial blood lactate in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05), the oxygen uptake rate was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05) and the arterial oxygen content was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). In the lung function indexes, the FEV
